Crashes when importing email uncaught exception of type std::bad_alloc

Reported by Patrik Fältström | January 31st, 2014 @ 11:22 AM

Hi am just trying on recommendation from trusted friends MailMate. But it crashes already while importing email messages. I have from one of my friends heard it is questionable whether MailMate can handle "many" messages, and with "many" we talk about a few hundred thousand messages.

I have all my mail since 1997, archived in mailboxes, one per month. I do know that since 2001, when I started counting, I have 10-12k messages per month, i.e. between 100k and 140k messages per year -- for at least 14 years, which gives 1.5M messages or so.

Am I not a user MailMate likes? :-(

    Sorry, 1.5 million is out of reach for MailMate. My reply in this ticket describes my current view on what MailMate can handle.

    If your primary activity is to search a large archive of emails then MailMate is not for you (I would suggest a simple online IMAP client although they might only really exist for use in the Terminal). If your primary activity is handling/replying a lot of incoming emails then you might consider having only the past 6-12 months of email in MailMate. MailMate allows you to subscribe to a subset of IMAP mailboxes (also without changing server side IMAP subscriptions).

    You don't hold the record though. I was recently asked if MailMate could handle 10 million messages (40GB).

    Ok, thanks!!!

    I normally use Mail.App -- but the number of bugs in the Mavericks version of the client have made me look around for something else... This was the reason why I "stumbled" on your client.
